CD Research Project

Sean CollinsWhether it originates from finance, career, health, personal or relationship, stress is part of normal everyday life. However, chronic unrelenting stress often leads to acute anxiety and sleep disorders.

This triggers the release of excess cortisol into the bloodstream lowering immune function and leaving people vulnerable to colds, the flu and infections. For those with longer term conditions such as heart disease, cancer and Type 2 Diabetes, the implications are even more serious. Such stress also interferes with concentration and the ability to relax.

Numerous studies have shown that the regular use of a guided relaxation CD can help recalibrate the human relaxation response and improve health outcomes. The question this study asked was is: “Can a person affected by moderate levels of stress meaningfully lower their stress levels and restore their relaxation capability using a relaxation CD for 7 days?”

After use, we ask you to complete the following brief anonymous research questionnaire and return it to: Sean Collins), Ardagh Clinic, 118 Stillorgan Rd, Dublin 4. If you are currently under the care of a physician, you are advised to discuss the appropriateness of the use of this CD with them prior to use.
